I don't use a lot of STL, and I'm productive. Neither does John Carmack or John Ratcliff, and the word "productive" doesn't capture just how much they accompli

I don't use a lot of STL, and I'm productive. Neither does John Carmack or John Ratcliff, and the word "productive" doesn't capture just how much they accomplish.
I'd like to ask, are you understanding my point? An amount of open-mindedness is required. Common wisdom has been proven incorrect time and time again throughout history, and the common wisdom of C++ that "you need to use STL containers and Boost to be productive" is incorrect.
Pierre can illustrate some of the issues more succinctly than I: http://72.14.205.104/search?q=cache:UV4RcASt8mMJ:www.codercorner.com/blog/%3Fp%3D25+site:codercorner.com/blog+standard&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=3&gl=us http://72.14.205.104/search?q=cache:UV4RcASt8mMJ:www.coderco...
- nuggien 19y agoYou are trying too hard to make a point that people don't agree with. You don't need STL/Boost to be a productive c++ programmer. That's fine, no arguments there. But you don't have to avoid STL/Boost in order to be a productive/efficient c++ programmer either. Get over it.
